"Our current outlook is for the overall economy to recover slowly, but with continued contraction in the non-residential construction market in 2010," CEO John J. Engel said. "These challenging economic times are providing an excellent opportunity to strengthen and extend our market leadership positions through building on and expanding our supplier relationships, product offerings and service capabilities."
